Letting Go of 2025 Together: One Bite at a Time

Letting 2025 Go Over Burgers: Community Dinner at Red Robin | Santa Ana
Because sometimes healing looks like bottomless fries and honest conversation!
2025 was… a lot. Big feelings. Loud headlines. Nonstop opinions. And that quiet exhaustion that comes from always being “on.” Many of us are carrying more than we meant to, with very few places to exhale.
As we move into a new year, it is okay if the "letting go" does not happen all at once. Some weight lingers. Some experiences take time to process. This gathering is about gently shedding what is still hanging on — the residual weight of 2025 — at your own pace.
We are coming together for a community dinner at Red Robin in Santa Ana to do just that. We will reserve a few tables so we can sit together, share a meal, and slowly set the weight of 2025 down. Nothing formal. No expectations. Just food, shared space, and room to breathe. Come as you are, crazy hair and all!
The main gathering will take place from 4 to 6 PM and is designed to feel communal and welcoming. For those who prefer something quieter or more intimate, we are also planning a small lunch gathering from 12 to 1 PM.
During our time together, you are welcome to:
- Talk and air it out over some good food
- Journal quietly
- Create an intention-setting bracelet (supplies provided)
- Or simply sit, eat, and enjoy being human together
This is a soft, welcoming space to land. Laughing is allowed. Silence is welcome too.
20% of the proceeds from the meals purchased at this gathering will support Inner Sanctuary Wellness Foundation, a nonprofit that offers spaces to breathe, pause, and land for those navigating burnout, overwhelm, and major life transitions. We create gentle community spaces where people can rest, reconnect, and rebuild lives that feel whole again, moving from survival toward stability.
Can’t make it for lunch or dinner, but want to support?
Our fundraiser takes place at Red Robin all day on Monday, January 12th. Stop by with friends, family, or on your own, or order takeout at a time that works for you. Just mention Inner Sanctuary Wellness Foundation, and 20% of the proceeds from your meal will support our organization.
You can also support us by visiting our donation page. We would truly love to have you at the table, in whatever way feels right.
Come hungry. Leave feeling lighter. Maybe with leftovers.
